Asylee N-400 Interview Experience

12 years ago By Editor

Today I did my interview and passed. The Officer was a very beautiful young lady and she was nice and friendly. After taking an oath to tell the truth, she started going through my N-400 application (not line by line). Eventhough I said no to "citation and arrest", I had HOV violation and driving under suspended privilage tickets. Showed her documents that I paid my due and I am clear. She seemed satisified with that. Also I have said no to "have you been to jail or prison? " in my application,I told her I was detained in my home country and she said that is fine.

Citizenship Interview - Nashville, TN 2013, January

12 years ago By Chief Editor

Just wanted to share my interview experience.

We are in Nashville, TN and, by luck of draw, USCIS somehow scheduled us to appear in Nashville FO for US citizenship interview. That was nice, since we have two kids and no one could take care of them that day.

Boston citizenship interview experience w/arrest record (False claim of US Citizenship)

12 years ago By Editor

I had my naturalization interview on the April 5.

I posted my detailed history in the forum but now it is not coming up in searches, so here is a quick recap.

In 1997, I tried to cross over from Canada with a fake ID + Birth certificate, claiming I was a US citizen. I was arrested, and later received asylum. My wife, who was driving the car, was not arrested, but also faced removal/deportation, but that was dropped once I got my asylum and in 1 year she got derivative asylum.
